Well. Here we are again. I wasn't even planning on running this month, but since no one else jumped in to contest Taka, we'll take another crack at it. 
I'm not here to brag about my accomplishments or boast about what I have planned like I did in the early stages of my campaign in April. Its a miracle we even won that against the talent that @caleb_Larkmagnet1 brought to the table. In all honesty, except for getting more work done in the political system, there's not much I have planned for this month if I win. I don't know if that's a bad approach or if I'm making myself vulnerable, but so be it. 
I just want to thank you all for the past two months. Little did I know at the time what ended up happening a few weeks ago in my personal life. I know some of you might be thinking "big deal". I thought that too about other people that got affected by a breakup. I felt sorry for them, but I guess I didn't understand why. Now I do. It hits different when you go through it I guess. You sorta take it for granted.
I think God had it planned that way though. He kept me busy with something so that I wouldn't go off the deep end. You guys have been spectacular. I'm thankful for all the nice words of encouragement on the league and I definitely want head it up again sometime in the future.
God's been changing me even now when I feel like I'm in the "numb" stage of figuring things out. A day before everything went down, I went jogging around where I live and I got to talk about Jesus with a homeless guy who was drinking. I even got to pray for him. He seemed really greatful. I've asked God for a long time to give me the courage and fire to do something like that. I don't want it to stop. I'm going to keep that up, especially once I get over this "bump" in my road of life.
Now you might be asking, what does my personal life have to do with the forums? Everything. That's what the forums used to be. A bunch of kids getting on here to chat about what was going on with them. A place used by God so greatly that we felt... free to just be ourselves. We've strayed from that a but, that doesn't mean we don't want it back. I honestly don't know how, but I'm willing to aim for that goal. I want everyone to be on fire. I want to hear about the great things God's doing in your lives.
He's good, guys. He is so very good.
This has been my speech, I guess. Hope everyone has a good night or morning depending on when you read this. I'd be happy to have your vote once again.
